On the bayonet training course in army basic training a guy I new fell and landed on his bayonet. He was screaming and bleeding and pulled the bayonet out of his arm and then someone reminded him that drill sergeant said to leave the blade in if you accidentally stab yourself so he re-stabbed himself. Needless to say he never made it to active duty.
